The glasses body in some embodiments of the present disclosure comprises two lenses 3 independently provided, the two lenses 3 being not connected therebetween; no nose pad component 6 is provided between the two lenses 3, only a tapered space is provided for avoiding the nose portion, thus completely removing the pressure from the glasses. Of course, each lens 3 is also connected to the corresponding glasses leg 5. This connection is not limited to some particular form, but can be provided flexibly according to actual needs, for example: each lens 3 can be fixedly connected to the corresponding glasses leg 5, respectively, to increase its stability; or, through each lens 3 is removably connected to the glasses leg 5 via an adjusting member for convenience of replacement.

The auxiliary frame 1 in some embodiments of the present disclosure can be seen as a headband structure, made of elastic plastic or metal shrapnel. Wherein the elastic plastic has light weight, no harm to skin, tight fit to the user's head and other features. The metal shrapnel has strong stability and durability. Of course, two materials may also be used in combination, namely, an elastic plastic layer is formed on the inner surface of the metal shrapnel, thereby having the advantages of both materials.

Further, the auxiliary frame 1 may also be a semi-arc arc-shaped frame retractable. Such retractable adjustment may be implemented using a plug, elastic stretching or sliding member. In one preferred way, the auxiliary frame 1 is divided into a left half part and a right half part, and the left half part and the right half part are inserted in a sleeve respectively and can be retractably adjusted in a stretching way according to the shape of the head. Or, an elastic stretching member is provided between the left half part and the right half part to implement retractable adjustment through the stretching elasticity.

Specifically, in order to facilitate the user in wearing the glasses, the auxiliary frame 1 and the glasses legs 5 are hinged movably. Before the user is wearing the glasses, the auxiliary frame 1 is first rotated to a first position (e.g., rotated to the front of the lens 3), without affecting wearing the glasses. After the user rests the glasses legs 5 on the ears, the auxiliary frame 1 may be rotated to a second position (e.g., on top of the head), so that the glasses legs 5 and the auxiliary frame 1 are placed in suitable positions, respectively. In order to ensure that the auxiliary frame 1 does not shift freely after being in the second position, a stopper is also provided between the auxiliary frame 1 and the glasses legs 5, for operating the stopper to an appropriate position when the auxiliary frame 1 is placed in the second position, to fix the relative positions of the glasses legs 5 and the auxiliary frame 1.

Among them, the other way is that the ends of the auxiliary frame 1 are fixedly connected to the glasses legs 5. It is ok as long as such a fixed connection can meet that they may be worn on the user's head, for example: when the auxiliary frame 1 is of elastic plastic material, the ends of the auxiliary frame 1 can be fixed onto the glasses legs 5.

The massage apparatus in some embodiments of the present disclosure comprises a plurality of massaging keys 2 provided inside of the auxiliary frame 1; the plurality of massaging keys 2 is arranged in one or more rows, and the massaging keys in each row are arranged at the same interval. The massaging keys 2 are of convex shape and are elastically stretchable along the convex direction, that is, the massaging keys 2 move up and down along the direction of length, to achieve a better massage effect.

Alternatively, the ends of each massaging key 2 are with arcuate surface and the arcuate surfaces of the plurality of massaging keys 2 are on the same sphere. In this way, they fit the shape of a human head. The arcuate surface better fits a human head, and with the guide fillet, becomes safer after the acute angle being removed, allowing the user to feel comfortable.

Moreover, the interior of the massaging key 2 is inlaid with a magnetic structure 9 for user magnetic massage. This magnetic structure may be a magnet, a magnetic bead or a magnetic sheet. In application, the magnetic structure corresponds to the head or the temple position, and can play the role of physical massage and magnetic therapy, while the user can keep excited when experiencing the video effects, relieving fatigue.

Further, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 4, the auxiliary frame 1 is a flat strap structure surrounded by an inner layer and an outer layer; a hollow cavity is formed between the inner layer and the outer layer of the auxiliary frame 1, and a plurality of mounting holes 10 are provided on the inner layer of the auxiliary frame 1; one end of the massaging key 2 is provided within the hollow cavity and is connected to the outer layer of the auxiliary frame 1 via an elastic member, and the other end of the massaging key 2 can protrude from the mounting hole under the elastic force of the elastic member. Preferably, the elastic member is a spring.

Specifically, the auxiliary frame 1 is set to be a hollow two-layer structure, namely, the inner and outer layers. The inner and outer layers of the auxiliary frame 1 relatively move (toward each other) after being squeezed by an external force; with the pressure relieved, the inner and outer layers of the auxiliary frame 1 bounce to restore under the action of the elastic force thereof therebetween. That is, the distance between the inner and outer layers can be elastically lengthened or shortened, and the user manually presses the outer layer to move toward the inner layer and bounce when the user removes the hand. Meanwhile, the inner layer of the auxiliary frame 1 is provided with a plurality of holes mating with the sectional surfaces of the massaging keys 2, the heads of the massaging keys 2 may protrude out from the hollow cavity, and the massaging key 2 and the tail relative to its head are provided with a spring structure.
